DEL.ICIO.USI’m just so proud of my husband
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
I sometimes wonder if my husband truly knows how proud and honored I am to be his wife.
With this being our first deployment, I’ve experienced many emotions. But one of the most profound is an immense sense of pride for what he’s doing. I’ve found this be hugely consistent with the military wives I’ve met.
They are all staunch supporters of their husbands, and with good reason. We’re married to true heroes — the ones who are living in harm’s way, who have left behind their loved ones and careers and who worry daily about making it back home to their families.
They voluntarily make these sacrifices to defend the rights of those who sometimes don’t understand or don’t appreciate what they’re fighting for. We understand their selfless service to this country and couldn’t be prouder they are our husbands.
How do you show your pride for your soldier?

I too am very proud of our soldiers. I do not have family who are serving but I never feel like my thanks gets to enough of the soldiers nor family. Please pass it on that I know that what they are doing is very difficult but also important to this country.

Like Mike, I don’t have any family serving, but I’m a proud supporter of our troops. God bless them!
